Re: Space Wanderer [Adventure | Sci-Fi | Fantasy]
Any story previews? Got a one sentence elevator pitch to titillate us? I'm super into space sims right now (I've put a bit of money into Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen), so this might be right up my alley!

It's always good to have goals. Furthermore, it's wise to make sure that your story has plausible science and characters who are proactive.J-Ray wrote: I want this novel be interesting, believable, dynamic and visually appealing.
To go along with what VimislikArt said, please provide details about your characters, conflict, and world. Help us understand who this story is about. Explain what they want, and then what's keeping them from achieving their goals.
I don't know if you have completed one or more stories, or published at least one, in some other format. If you have not, then be careful with the scope of your visual novel. Make sure that you can commit to writing until the story is finished. I believe you will benefit by reading the Why So Many Unfinished Visual Novels? discussion thread from a few years ago. Then ask yourself questions such as...J-Ray wrote: Ten chapters adventure with intrigue, mystery, love and humor.
* How will you deal with perfectionism? If the story does not meet your expectations at first, then are you willing to continue writing? Can you stay dedicated enough to write multiple drafts?
* What about procrastination? Can you commit to a writing schedule? Do you believe that you can keep writing even when it seems boring?
* Finally, how will you persevere when Murphy's Law becomes a problem? When writing, you might have to deal with a personal crisis or a natural disaster. Always make sure that your story is backed up in several places.
